Blogs & Socials & Book Clubs, OH MY!
(aka: How YOU can be a part of our 2026 Coastal Magic Convention!)

Hello, lovely reader friends!!!

It’s only April (how is it already APRIL???) but we have started putting together the foundation pieces of our #CMCon26 puzzle!!

Most of you know that our event isn’t just a “one weekend” kind of event. We have chats, spotlights, a reading challenge, and other interactions with our authors and reader groups all throughout the summer and fall – leading to our weekend together in Daytona in February.

Part of the way we do this is with the invaluable help of a Featured Blogger team. We’ve had a few “core” members of our blogger team for many years, but every year we try to add new, engaging, excited voices to our crew. And this year, we’re trying a couple of new things for sharing the details of Coastal Magic with a wider audience, and involving new-to-us readers in our author interactions. So… if you’ve ever wanted to be a part of the Coastal Magic “magic” — we may have the perfect thing for you!!

If you have any questions — feel free to comment here, or reach out to me on social media or email.
I can’t wait to get these programs up and running for this year!!!

And don’t forget…

June 1st is our Featured Author Reveal, the start of general registration, and the beginning of our 2026 Coastal Magic Convention Reading Challenge!!! (If you’re not sure what the reading challenge is — click HERE! It’s SO much fun! Read books = win prizes!)

ICYMI, we’ve got a fun Authors & Attendees group on Facebook for anyone who’d like to keep in touch and keep updated with all the #CMCon26 details and shenanigans between now and February.
